Chapter 1355: Chapter 758: Martial Knock at the Stargate, Night Battle and Execution! (Part 2)

"Try a different approach..." Meng Chuan steadied his heart, then turned to practice the Celestial Abyss Skill. After completing a cycle of Grand Circulation, he pondered again:

"Although it’s not as effective as practicing in the water-attributed energy environment, nor as beneficial as Kidney Water Qi, it’s still slightly more efficient than cultivating with primal energy in a normal environment..."

The Celestial Abyss Skill was considered a Divine Skill, involved in the Dao.

This precisely proves that the cosmic energy within the Red Refining Banner is stronger than primal energy.

Having experimented up to this point, Meng Chuan became more convinced of his previous thoughts, and from his cultivation within the banner, he roughly summarized the regular pattern:

"Cosmic energy from the Cosmos is more suited for cultivating laws. In places like Purgatory, once ruled by the Destruction Demon God, practicing the supreme [Destruction] and its underlying laws make the endeavor even more formidable."

Cultivating Dao principles is possible, but generally less effective compared to laws. Perhaps cosmic energy from the Dao Realm is more suitable.

This aspect might not exist within the previous ’overall Cosmos’. It is the result of impacts generated under the interference of innate deities initiating the split of Dao Realm and the Cosmos.

As for human martial skills that don’t involve ’Dao and Law’, the effect is the worst...

The divine techniques that humans create remain unaffected because their essence tends towards the Dao, Meng Chuan understood this clearly.

The situation is clear at a glance, and he mused:

"Only if I elevate martial arts to embody the Dao, truly establish the Martial Path, can the ’Human Dao’ gain recognition under the cosmos’s main energy ’Light’ and, consequently, stand firm in the starry sky..."

Most likely, that’s how it will be.

Thinking about it this way, the task is indeed immense and demanding...

"Therefore, when I practice within the Red Refining Banner, I should continue with the Evolution Skill."

Fist Skill and mental methods are more suited for my future cultivation in the Five Elements Treasure Land. As for the [Martial God Halberd]... I’ll practice it in the Red Refining Banner for now."

"Practicing the Divine Halberd Skill generates too much destructive power, so he chooses wisely, valuing his treasure land..."

Focusing his mind, Meng Chuan restrained his continuously dissipating thoughts and resumed practicing the Martial God Halberd.

Throughout the ongoing cultivation, he concentrated on Lan Zhan’s momentum techniques, gradually reinforcing and quickly transforming them into substantive proficiency.

Until dawn broke outside, a panel notification prompted him to pause:

[Martial God Halberd: Third Layer (4%) → (12%)]

"Skill Completion (43+1%)"

Meng Chuan rubbed his eyes, looked again, and felt a refreshing rush of satisfaction, as if cold water had been poured over his head.

"This is indeed a divine skill. Dissecting Lan Zhan’s way of weapon techniques not only brings substantial improvements to [Martial God Halberd] proficiency but also boosts the skill’s completeness, not bad... not bad..."

If only he could master Lan Zhan’s spear techniques, as well as the numerous water Dao paths he ventured into... well, there’s no rush, they’re all stored in my mind, won’t be running away, slowly shall suffice..."

Lan Zhan truly is a treasure trove; just one probing has enabled Meng Chuan to gain considerably.

"Not just him, but also his opponent..." Meng Chuan recalled that scorpion essence:

"This one is another son of [Wrath] renowned as a ninth-rank powerhouse, mastering the middle-rank [Rampage] Law, Si God."

His prowess was also acquired step-by-step through practicing the Evolution Skill, manipulating time and space and clashing with Lan Zhan billion times before slightly losing ground..."

This figure is named [Ran Jin].

Due to a relative unfamiliarity with the Cosmic Evolution Skill, with his current "martial principles," it’s challenging to decipher the opponent’s techniques.

"However, my cultivation law commanding rampage, [Supreme Destruction], will allow me to refer to the relevant memories and attempt to comprehend while practicing the Destruction Heart Skill in the future."

Laws influencing time-space operations...

Just imagining such terrifying existence descending on Blue Star, and Meng Chuan feels formidable."

...

Three days swiftly passed, April 24th.

The river flowed calmly, plants verdant and lush.

The night approached.

By the tranquil Yongding River, two figures stood.

"The intelligence module has been sent to the San Qin Martial Arts Association, they’ll assist you with the installation and testing at home, make sure to contact them in advance and arrange a date."

"Thank you, Dragon King."

"Hmm." Cui Yunyu nodded. Her gaze at Meng Chuan was filled with more admiration than ever:

"Since you’re willing to join the Execution Bureau, prepare yourself in advance. The Human Alliance is about to officially form, and the Execution Bureau’s plans will commence, with corresponding chief officer evaluations likely starting year-end or early next year."

Press on to break four levels; with your combat strength, once accomplished, you should be able to snatch a chief officer position from those ’old-timers’."

The establishment of the Execution Bureau aims to counter the Demon Path.

With limited power, the strongest opponents are Outer Heaven’s [Peng Demon, Mo Jue] and the strategist from the Purgatory Sect, ’Weakest Fifth Limit’ Li Xiao."

Strategically considering the value of training and reasonable allocation of labor resources, the stronger contenders confront the more challenging Demon Nest."

From the Great Chu Execution Bureau’s eight strategy chiefs, only two seats are reserved for Revered ones, while the remaining six strategy task chiefs are all Martial Arts Grandmasters."

This time’s recruitment for Execution Bureau members has lifted the age restrictions, attracting numerous seasoned Grandmasters nearly a century old, including many peak Grandmasters."

Seeking the Fifth Limit, they won’t let slip this invaluable opportunity to amass substantial resources.

Meng Chuan stood by the riverside and nodded:

"I understand, becoming a Grandmaster shouldn’t be a problem."

This confidence he did possess.

Recently in cultivation, although unable to determine his Qi Blood volume, the sensation of ’saturation’ from the Inner World suggested his proximity to Breaking Four."

On returning to Yong’an, the priority was closing off to break four levels."

Meng Chuan followed behind Cui Yunyu, approaching the Yongding River."

"Return safely and take care." Cui Yunyu said, glancing towards the west bank, her expression indifferent:
